LURVIG

IKEA

—

Have you ever felt like your cat or dog wasn't just a pet but a member of the family? It's exactly that focus that led IKEA to make the comprehensive LURVIG pets range. Designed by pet owners, with support from trained veterinarians, the range covers all the bases of our shared life with pets indoors and outside, so you and your pet can enjoy your home together.
Lurvig is a collection designed for our dogs and cats. It covers all the bases of our shared life with pets indoors and out. Our pets have their own personalities but they have five things in common: they love sleeping, eating, playing and exercising, and being close to us. So these behaviours have been the first thing on our minds when designing these products.
A range of beds, blankets, cushions, feeders, toys, collars and leashes, all of them designed to fit in our homes, many are also compatible with existing IKEA wares.

You can place the cat house on legs, hang it on the wall or slide the house into a KALLAX shelving unit. It can also be used as a practical bedside table where the cat can crawl in and you can have small things close at hand on top.

On the front side there’s a scratching wall where your cat can sharpen their claws. The opening is designed small to make your cat feel safe. The legs have a non slippery rubber to avoid sliding.

With the KLIPPAN pet bed you can quickly and easily create an even larger sleeping space by folding out the seat cushion. The cover is easy to keep clean since it’s removable and can be machine washed.

With this cat scratching mat, you quickly and easily transform an ordinary table leg into a scratching tree, where your cat can both sharpen their claws and stretch.
You easily attach the cat scratching mat using the sewn-in straps.

The Slow feed bowl has an elevated part in the middle that ensures that your dog takes smaller bites, which reduces the risk of stomach pain.

All the bowls have been designed with an anti-slip material on the underside to stay in place.

The pet bedframe can be used in two different ways:
as a cozy nook with medium-high walls or put it upside down to give your pet a clear view in all directions.

The head of the zipper is safely hidden away in a small elastic cover to protect your pets from any potential harm.

The KALLAX insert is a cosy, safe and comfortable sleeping space that you can place on the floor or slide into a KALLAX shelving unit.
When you don’t need the box and want to save space, simply open the zipper in the bottom and fold it flat.

You can easily get your cat or dog out since both short ends of the bag can be opened. Your cat feels safe since the bag’s long sides and one of the short sides is covered.

When you don’t need the box and want to save space, simply open the zipper in the bottom and fold it flat.
The bag has two windows: one at the top – so you can see how your pet is doing –, and one on the short side – so your cat can look out.
If you travel, your pet can sleep in the bag.

The litter tray can be also used as a cat bed when adding a cushion inside.

Inma: "I feel that my pets are the ones who can really take me to the present moment. When we share our time together, my head is free, and other worries and stress fade away. They teach us respect, and their unconditional love is priceless ❤ ❤"

The couple shares their life with three dogs and claim the've always missed nice pet products at an affordable price. As animal lovers, they're proud and happy to be part of this project and would love if it served as an inspiration for other people to spend more quality time with their pets.
